What social class do you consider yourself to be?

What social class do you consider yourself to be and why?

Thought it would be interesting to get people's opinions on this

Upper-middle based on parent's jobs and general upbringing/living standard.

What social class do you consider yourself to be OP? It's interesting to know what people base it on - the criteria people draw on to define themselves in social class terms are not always the same.

That's what I'm interested in - I see people with very similar (or seemingly) lifestyles describing themselves as being from different social classes. I guess it's how people perceive the class system, but without a doubt the class system is becoming much less pronounced.
I'd probably consider myself to be lower middle - purely because that is the background I come from. But then I am now studying for a degree, an interesting question is whether my class will then change if i graduate.

I was wondering this too. Does the class of a person change so suddenly, for example you graduate from univresity and get a good job? Does this make you middle class instantly or are you still low class?

In terms of income, upper middle class. Socially middle class though, as I was state educated.

Don't say if you don't want to, but out of curiosity, what level of income do you feel makes you 'upper middle'?

A minimum of £100,000-120,000 joint income in my opinion.

That's interesting, because I think can be working class and earn more than that and be upper middle and earn less. It has to do with culture, job, education and outlook/upbringing, not just earnings. That's also true in many other countries.
